You're certainly right, but it would be a big job.  In fact I recently
started a proposal on the subject (bare bones).  Please add to it!
Especially the requirement for i18n.

> I'am looking for several products to translate zope-site into german.
> I have found ZBabel and it works very fine for normal websites.
> It always works fine in the standard_error_message if there is an
> error_value and an error_type.
> But it doesnt work if i get an string exception, because the error_value
> is an complete html-site.
> Therefore i tryed to patch some Exceptions in HTTPResponse to raise an
> class-Exception and a short string
> as error_value.
> The problem i see is that all exceptions in zope are raised in many
> defferent places and thats very difficult
> to patch them or to make them translation-able.
> I think it is a good way to change all string-exceptions like these in
> HTTPResponse to class-exceptions and the error_value
> to a normal description. With these changes the standard_error_message
> could be raised and there is an ability to
> translate the error_value.
> Do i think in the right way or did i missing any facts
> 
> thanks as
